So, i have been riding, but not taking the time to finish my paint mod, or tail mod (fire to light). I have. Been riding, especially since the roads in Cali all have had Covid for the past year.
Well, i have done probably 100 oil changes with 10+ on my Bolt. I have always torqued it to the spec 26-29 ft/lb and I stripped the threads on the drain. After reading through befire I asked this question, i see that the rule of thumb is to hand tighten. SMH
My question is do should I take a go at re-threading or should i just buy a new swingarm, as its only like $100 bucks or so on the ebay.
Gotta be honest, never done either and i throughly expect 34 to tell me ghat replacing the rear pegs should fix it and cooter to post a thread, already explaining the best option/process. And i welcome them both with open arms.
Lay it on me.
